AZ Independence Day Match 2016 - #5 - Mind Games & Conclusion

The 5th and final stage of the AZ Independence day match induced stress not just by time but psychologically - how many rounds would you need to neutralize 10 plates at 100 yards? Any left standing are a severe miss penalty...

We have a tradition of rifle matches used to celebrate specific things in Arizona, like President's Day, as well as Independence Day.

The AZ Independence Day match has been at different venues over the years and this year was its inauguration at Cowtown. Cowtown is an amazing facility with incredible ranges!

Karl used a Century Arms C308 G3/CETME with a Russian 3.5x20 VOMZ scope in the "Trooper" division. Trooper division requires the shooter to carry all of the gear and all of the ammunition they plan to use for the entire match through every stage.

This match is also a good cause, in that was a fund raiser for the Phoenix Children's Hospital that raised over $1000 for the kids.

A number of sponsors stepped up to the plate to promote the match and these ideals, please consider visiting them if you're in need of any gear or training:
